Life

    So I have been busy these last few weeks....We finally went to Disneyworld and Universal Studios all 4 Parks were amazing. We had the best time enjoying the vacation, spending time together, seeing the sights. We drove to Coca-Beach and dipped our feet in the ocean, when we left Alice was in tears because she fell into the ocean chasing her shoes that she kicked off. She wasn't very happy that she dove head first into the Atlantic and sand to get back her flip flops that she carelessly left to close to the waters edge. But the rest of us had fun even chasing after Alice and her shoes, I was able to pick her up before she got to wet and sandy and was even able to grab her shoes before they were lost forever so I counted this as a win.
    We were able to drive around and visit Cape Canaveral and NASA site but we didn't go in because it was expensive and we didn't have time to actually go explore due to our already tight park schedule. Our itinerary was this;
               Monday-Drove around saw the sights, the Atlantic Ocean, and spent some time at "Give kids the World Village"
               Tuesday-Universal Studios, this was so much fun. Josh and Lyndsey had a blast riding so many of the rides, we got our pictures taken with the minions, Spongebob, Patrick and Squidward and Alice's favorite ET, they possibly have the best customer service regarding parking for the disabled and the accommodations that they provided us during Alice's Make a Wish trip. They made a heart sign with their hands to signify that Alice was special and they accommodated her with letting her skip lines, being extra friendly and really taking extra time with her.
               Wednesday- Disney's Hollywood Studios, I loved this one. I love the old Hollywood feel so this was amazing, plus I rode the Tower of Terror which I thought they were closing it in January but I guess they are only closing the one at disneyland. I actually rode it and made my 12 year old Lyndsey ride it with me. We both loved it and were both surprised that everyone else screamed but us which was funny. I don't scare easily my only complaint is that when we were done my butt hurt from being jammed into the seat so many times.
               Thursday- Disney's Epcot, this one was fun because we got to walk around the world. It was not what I expected and by that I was slightly disappointed because it didn't hold up to the picture I had in my head. We stayed until it was dark but missed the fireworks because we were all beat and accumulated about 6 miles of walking that day.
                Friday-Disney's Magic Kingdom, this park is truly another world. You park in a giant parking lot, walk or ride a tram to the entrance. At this entrance you choose 1 of 2 ways to enter the magic kingdom, either by tram or river boat. We chose tram, we thought it would be faster. I'm not sure if it was or not but it seemed to take forever. When we got to the MAGIC KINGDOM we presented our passes and were let through to collect our stroller for Alice. This park is just like main street at Disneyland accept it's it's own ISLAND. We showed up to the park later because we had tickets to "Micky's not so Scary Halloween Party" which are hard tickets to get by the way. But because we had those tickets we could be in the park until midnight so we figured we could let the kids sleep in and still see everything because they keep the rides going well passed the 8:00 closing time. BUT.......the park is open until midnight but rides stopped at 8 which sucked but oh well.

Genie Pass: Disney world has something called a Genie Pass which means no matter what we got to the front of the line. This saved us so much time during our trips to the disney parks because we went in the exit's or were the first ones on. This saved us literally dozens of hours waiting in line. I am not even kidding there was 170 minute wait (almost 3 hrs) for snow white and the seven dwarfs mine ride, WOW!
               Saturday-Flew Home, we left Florida at 630am but had to get up at 4 to be at the airport at 5, it was a long day filled with lots of good memories.

Oh man, I'm down again

So I've had eye issues for a while, nothing serious at all just lots of itchiness and irritation. Well last night my eye was on FIRE so I went to the drs today and I have an allergic eye infection! Woot, woot! Its my luck. So as of right now im sitting at the pharmacy itchy as hell and am having to wait while its be filled and all I want to do is rip my eye out and wash it..... I wont because well thats not pretty.

Disneyworld

So we are back from Orlando and the land of Disney. We had a wonderfully magical time, we spent 7 solid days together sight seeing, visiting landmarks, spending a once in a life time trip gathering memories.
